Montalbano's The Track of Sand is next

The next episode in this second run of Inspector Montalbano, at 9pm on 6 October, is The Track of Sand, based on the book, the twelfth in Camilleri's series.

Montalbano wakes up one morning to find the carcass of a dead horse stranded on the beach below his house. Soon after, a beautiful woman walks into Vigata police station to report the abduction of her racehorse. A line of investigation emerges that brings Montalbano into contact with the elegant world of horse racing, via some illegal horse betting rackets organised by the Mafia.
